Cape Town – Two patients who benefited from the provincial government’s Mandela Day Surgeries Project gave thanks yesterday to Groote Schuur hospital staff and all those who made their life-changing surgeries possible. For the past three years, the provincial health department and its partners have brought life-changing experiences to hundreds of vulnerable people.
Not only did the department achieve its target, but by collaborating and being innovative, additional procedures such as sterilisations and gastroscopy were added, which then led to more than 400 patients receiving various health procedures. His mom, Emmerentia Badja, said: “The team at Red Cross Hospital and the community support has been amazing. Every day we grow together and the laser treatment is helping a lot. He can bend his arms more and the scarring is softer, thinner and looks much better.
“I’m very excited, thank you to the Department of Health, doctors and everybody who assisted in this project.”
